FILMIC SOUNDTRACKS FOR THEATRE AND THEATRICAL SOUNDTRACKS FOR FILM
Kelly Ryall is an award winning composer and sound artist working in the realm of theatre, film and dance. Whilst working predominately as a composer he has been a key collaborator and devisor in most of the works he has been involved with. His primary interest in music and sound is creating work that is immersive and visceral with the aim of taking listeners on a journey through their own internal and external landscapes. As a composer he also prefers to perform his music live allowing the performer /audience relationship to enhance the compositions.
He has been involved with music and the arts for 17 years, his first foray into music for theatre was with the seminal Australian experimental theatre company Splinters. During this time he was also involved in the live music scene playing in numerous groups and touring with bands such as the Beastie Boys, Fugazi, DJ Spooky and Lee Scratch Perry.
In 2007 he received the Melbourne International Arts Festival Award and in 2005 received a Green Room Award and Fringe Festival Award for outstanding composition and sound design. In 2008 he was nominated for two Green Room Awards for his compositional work on Chapters from the Pandemic.
He has just completed the first stage of a creative development on his own work, "Disappearing Acts", a music/sound, video and performance work, with collaborator Martyn Coutts.
He is co-founder of the Amazing Business, an Artistic Associate of the Storeroom Theatre Workshop and a musician with his band High Pass Filter.
